Next year, 2026, will see the long-awaited retail return of the “Flint” Air Jordan 9, which has been in sneaker stasis since its original 2002 debut. Initial images of the 2026 version and what we see is a white leather upper overlaid with an unbuckled flint grey overlay that also wraps the heel and extends up to the collar.
French blue shows up on the “23” and the global Jumpman logo on the rear heel, eyelets, as well as the top of the tongue with grey taking care of the inner.
Underneath the upper resides a flint grey midsole and a french blue Jumpman branded white rubber outsole.
As it currently stands, the “Flint” Air Jordan 9 is set to return January 24, 2026, at nike.com and select retail establishments.
